Russia to treat US jets in Syria as ‘targets’ after America guns down first regime warplane

Posted on by

From The Independent.UK:

Russia has said it will treat US warplanes operating in parts of Syria where its air forces are present as “targets” amid a diplomatic row caused by the downing of a Syrian jet.

***It will also suspend a hotline between Russia and the US set up to prevent mid-air collisions.***
